Feds wrongly granted citizenship to hundreds facing deportation More than 800 illegal immigrants from countries of concern who were set for deportation were mistakenly granted U.S. citizenship because the Department of Homeland Security didn’t have their fingerprints on file, according to an internal audit released Monday. The Homeland Security Department’s inspector general found the immigrants used different names or birthdates to apply for citizenship with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration. In the case of 858 immigrants from "special interest countries or neighbouring countries with high rates of immigration fraud," the discrepancies weren’t caught because their fingerprints were missing from government databases.
